To Singapore in June 2012

It’s been a while since my last trip to Singapore. Nothing changed drastically but more than enough to fell like I’m abroad although literally next door neighbor. Let’s do pictures instead.

I walked from Bugis all the way to Marina Bay Sand. That’s like 6 km?

Saw a mother of all ferris wheel, but it was closed for maintenance I think.

We further down to Kelantan Road to the famous Ah Boy Bike store. This boot is a steal! It’s RM 400 and in Malaysia, it’s RM 950 for the same pair. Crazy huh?

Passed by evening market. Kinda looked like a thrift road.

Some of these items are usable though a bit used. I did offer to buy some amplifier, but had no way of carrying it back especially with the huge bike boots I bought. Some one was bargaining for SGD 2 for t-shirt, and he got it!

Some wasn’t happy with me taking photos. I left immediately.

From a far, I thought they were betting or something. But they’re actually waiting for the bus to Johor Bahru. I asked myself, who’d be stupid enough to wait in line this long? The next day, I took the same route.

Ban San Street is where you get taxis to Johor Bahru, costs SGD 15-30 depending on your nego skills.

Bugis Village. Definitely want to stay here again next time 😉

The famous Bugis Street. It’s a bit crowded but if you want cheap souvenirs, this is the place to go! They have everything, just name it!
